Show Solution
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Since this question type sometimes has no actual error, it is worth carefully checking each flagged phrase individually before assuming one must be wrong.
- “One of the security guards” is a standard, correctly formed phrase (singular verb “rushed” correctly follows “one of the...”).
- “Rushed forward” is a natural, correct verb-adverb pairing describing quick movement.
- “Anything objectionable” is a standard phrase meaning something that could be considered inappropriate or prohibited, used correctly here.
No word or phrase in the sentence needs to be changed.
So the correct answer is option D, no error.
